FIRST AND ONLY WARNING TO DRUG DEALERS

Many Kahnawakero:non have become fed up with the drug problem in our
community. To show their dissatisfaction with this situation, several
hundred people marched from the tunnel to the Karonhianonhnha School down
the Old Malone Highway. People began gathering at the tunnel around Noon
and the march commenced at 1:00 p.m. with the added safety of a police escort.

The drug epidemic in Kahnawake affects everyone, which is why people walked
together regardless of political or religious beliefs or affiliation. Band
Councillors and Peacekeepers walked side by side with some of their biggest
detractors. After all, this is not an issue that affects only one part of
Kahnawake; it affects everyone.

The group was followed by approximately 15 cars, while many people joined
the march en route down the highway.

Even convicted drug dealer Marc Lahache marched, making it as far as the
pharmacy before Selma Delisle told him to leave, saying he was one of the
reasons they were marching.

One young girl was wearing a mock monkey suit, much like the one many
people would like to see convicted drug dealers wear while doing community
service
